Well, you're on the Mariah website. That's one of their products.

Thats just a widebody, that has been molded in. It's a 79-80 model, because of the taillights, and it has that custom "Porsche 944" center piece between the taillights.

Rear bumper or not, I think that Mariah kit makes it look worse.

TheTwinTurboRX-7: I saw one of them on ebay a couple months ago and I posted the link here. I thought it looked pretty cool too, but most of the people who replied said it looked pretty gay.

I don't care how it looks, it adds dead weight for questionably "better" looking to some people. These cars look best stock anyways and have the best ground clearence also.

That guy probably had the nicest car in town, back in like 1982 or whenever that picture was taken.

Look at the ugly *** Cadillac Sedan Deville or whatever it is in the background. That was the style then.

Good point- how many early 80's Sevilles (is that what that fugly thing is in the background) do you see now days?
Remember what was cool looking in the early 80's? Louvers, interior lights that blinked to the music, jacked up rears with big tires, pinstipping, basically everything that is cool now.

I just realised why it looks so jacked up- Back in the 80's, when you put bigger wider tires on a car for better grip, it jacked it up. Why? Becuase they didn't have low peofile tires back then. 60 series was probably the lowest profile you could get.
